Finding liked posts on this forum?

[Gavin]

There were a few useful threads that I clicked like a long time ago thinking I can come back to them later for reference. Is there a way to show a list of liked posts? I can't seem to find that in the account page, only Likes You've Received.

You can't find the threads you've liked. But the feature to do what you want is more or less the "watch" link (top right), you can then click on the "Watched Threads" button (top center left) to see the list of all the threads you've watched ;)

That's ridiculous. Is that a Xenforo thing? Or do we have the forum misconfigured somehow to not allow that?

You can't like threads, only messages, so it's vaguely understandable.

I think it's a XeonForo thing.

A "like thread" option would be great. Watched threads tend to not mean much after you've participated in a few thousand.

By the way, new users are definitely going to be left wondering how I apparently have an average of 3+ likes per post and how I'd participated in thousands of threads with only a couple hundred posts. Thanks for messing up my post count, XenForo!

Nah. You are just THAT good!!

I guess I could do that now. I didn't want my watched threads to be cluttered with stuff. I thought if you could like a post, there would've been a way to list them.

IIRC, it happened to cyberjock at one point. I *thought* there was a backend option to update the count.

There is. Cyberjock reduced his post count in revenge for something he and I were taunting him about, or at least that's what I believe.

It could also be insanely crazy timing on the part of XenForo, mixed with some slight obliviousness of ours.

Speak for yourself.

I think the reason why it happened was because there's a xenforo feature that automatically knocks down your post count when it gets too close to cyberjock's.

Some of us still remember Cyberjock back when he was a noob...

He is still total nubsauce.

 

[anodos]

He is still total nubsauce.

But he doesn't post as much as he used to. For a long time he was as prolific as a spider monkey on amphetamines.

nubsauce

 

[DrKK]

"nub", "nubcake", "nubsauce" are variations of "noob", implying that the person doesn't have the necessary mental agility to ever exit from the "newb" state.

Well, I think he's working like 60 hours a week now for ixSystems. So his ability to post with the same fecundity has been attenuated substantially.

I wondered what his trick was.

 

[cyberjock]

Yeah, my original name was "noobsauce". I had no intention of "getting involved" with the project. FreeNAS has been my first forte into open source, NAS software, BSD, forum regular and probably more that I can't think of.
As for the post count, you can tell Xenforo to rebuild the index of message counts. So anytime some admin changes your post count, it's really only temporary. Anytime someone rebuilds the post index you get the correct count again. :P
